In detail
About the AT-VM740xML/H
The AT-VM740xML/H combo kit includes the AT-VM740xML microlinear dual moving magnet cartridge premounted on the AT-LT10 universal 1/2"-mount headshell. The AT-VM740xML is part of the updated AT-VMx series, which introduces material and design changes to further refine the VM sound, offering responsive playback that is especially sensitive to the dynamism of musical expression.
The paratoroidal coil construction of the cartridge’s generator – two PCUHD coils per channel, one stacked behind the other – greatly improves electromagnetic performance, while a slight reduction in coil turns* enhances transient response for clean, lifelike sound.
Since all AT-VMx and VM Series cartridges share the same body design and have a removable stylus, you can use almost any AT-VMNx or VMN replacement stylus* with any VMx or VM cartridge for easy experimentation with sound characteristics.
Features
AT-VM740xML Dual Moving Magnet Cartridge
- AT-VMx dual moving magnet cartridge with microlinear stylus
- Microlinear stylus tracks the record groove with incredible accuracy, providing more nuanced sound reproduction than elliptical and conical styli
- Paratoroidal coils improve generating efficiency for enhanced channel separation, channel balance, and transient response
- PCUHD (Pure Copper Ultra High Drawability) coils – and fewer coil turns – deliver highly responsive, three-dimensional sound reproduction with excellent transient response
- Center shield plate between the left and right channels reduces crosstalk for clear stereo sound
- Die-cast aluminum housing reduces vibrations and resonance
- Threaded inserts make cartridge easier to mount, especially to integrated tonearms
- V-cut in the flip-up stylus protector shows stylus position, serving as a guide for lowering the stylus onto a record
- Aluminum tapered cantilever reduces mass near the stylus tip for quicker signal transmission
- Compatible with any turntable headshell that accepts 1/2" cartridges
- Compatible with most AT-VMx series replacement styli,* offering a wide choice of options for every budget and application
